Roasted Veg Cous Cous
Roasted Veg Cous Cous
This dish might seem a bit of an effort as you have to bake in addition to cooking on the stove but pre- roasting the veg definitely enhances the flavour. The slight charcoal taste you get makes all the veg sweeter and perfect balance to the spicy, tangy couscous so although it may seem like extra effort I think it is definitely worth it. Can be served hot or cold and is the perfect side dish to kebabs, chicken and fish.
